It's easy to forget about all the working parts on your Toyota that need to be kept in tip-top shape - your exhaust system is one of those components. Your exhaust system is important because it manages engine combustion by expelling gases and reducing emissions. This process protects not only you and your passengers but also the environment. Your exhaust system also muffles extraneous vehicle noise, making every drive quiet and more enjoyable. When your exhaust system is working properly, it helps your engine run more efficiently. On the other hand, when it's not working up to its full potential, it decreases your vehicle's performance, and if it's not handled in a timely manner, it can wind up costing more time and money in the long run. Our expert technicians at Capitol Toyota in Salem, OR, are factory-trained and Toyota-certified, which means they know your Toyota inside and out - they can let you know if your exhaust system is in need of service and can complete the job quickly so you're back on the road in no time.

There is a wide variety of symptoms that can pop up if your exhaust system is in need of repair. Uncommonly loud noises, such as rumbling, roaring, hissing, rattling, or popping, are a definite sign of a problem, including a hole in your muffler, a gasket pipe leak, loose components, or a leak in your exhaust manifold. You also might notice your vehicle is exhibiting reduced acceleration, decreased fuel economy, or engine misfires. Your check engine light may illuminate, or you notice a strong smell of gas or exhaust - if any of those signs occur, be sure to call our service department at Capitol Toyota as soon as possible. Ignoring these symptoms can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning and a risk of your ride catching on fire. Engine and/or component damage is something that can happen if exhaust repair isn't done in a timely manner, leading to larger problems at a bigger cost.
